“Hajira was accused of attempted murder, after which she asked for forgiveness. The woman explained that the loudness of weekly worship at Madina’s house had been disturbing her and other Muslim neighbors, even though Hajira’s house is almost 300 feet away.”
Islamic law forbids Christians to make public display of their religious festivals.
“Despite the serious consequences that could have befallen the Christian family as a result of the poisoning, the police were not called, with the village seeking to prevent religious tensions from escalating.”
That is, if Taaka Hajira had been arrested, Muslims would have rioted and possibly killed innocent people. And so she gets off scot-free.
“Muslim Confesses to Poisoning Christian Mother With Christmas Gifts, Sending Her Vomiting,” by Stoyan Zaimov, Christian Post, January 8, 2018 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur):
A Muslim woman in Uganda has admitted to and asked for forgiveness for intentionally poisoning a Christian mother of five on Christmas morning with food gifts.
Morning Star News reported late last week that Nafamba Bongo Madina, the Christian mother, and her five young children received gifts of sugar, salt, soap, matchboxes, groundnuts and cooking oil on Christmas morning from Taaka Hajira, a Muslim woman, and other neighbors in Gayaza village, Kabuna Sub-County, Budaka District.
Madina used the oil while cooking some food, but decided to taste it first before serving it to family members.
“When she started screaming and was continuously vomiting, I called in a taxi and rushed her to Kabuna dispensary, where it was found that she had been poisoned,” an in-law explained.
Madina was discharged after spending a night in the health center, with analysis of the cooking oil confirming that it contained poison.
Gavaza village Chairman John Guloba questioned Hajira after finding out about the incident and the Muslim woman confessed to giving poison.
Hajira was accused of attempted murder, after which she asked for forgiveness. The woman explained that the loudness of weekly worship at Madina’s house had been disturbing her and other Muslim neighbors, even though Hajira’s house is almost 300 feet away.
Despite the serious consequences that could have befallen the Christian family as a result of the poisoning, the police were not called, with the village seeking to prevent religious tensions from escalating.
Madina lost her husband two years ago, who died shortly after they left Islam for Christianity. The children, all of whom are under 15, have reportedly been facing taunts by Muslim neighbors, who call them infidels….
PATRICIA FRANCES KOENIG says
The Christians in Africa and the Middle East are suffering severe persecution…yet the Western religious and political leaders say nothing! I admire the persecuted Christians for their dedication and fortitude.
Lydia Church says
Yes!

CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION & GENOCIDE:
“WORSE THAN ANY TIME IN HISTORY”

Christian Persecution and Genocide | Worst Countries for Christian Persecution
(from RATHEREXPOSETHEM blog)
A believer prays in the ruins of a church in Al-Hasakah destroyed by Daesh (ISIS) militants.
The persecution and genocide of Christians is “worse than at any time in history” according to several studies on the oppression and murder of Christians worldwide. Although it has not dominated the headlines in mass media, for tens of millions of Christians across the globe, each day they live professing their faith in Christ is one that can end up in violent attack, kidnapping, imprisonment or death.
“More Persecuted Than Any Other Faith Group”
Worst Countries for Christian persecution | World Watchlist rankings
Pakistani Christian women mourn their loved ones after an Easter Sunday suicide bombing killed over 70 Christians.
“Blessed [are] they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” – Matthew 5:10.
“More than 200 million Christians in the 50 countries where it is most difficult to be a Christian experience persecution because of their faith.” (source).
So concluded the report from Open Doors USA, an aid organization that raises awareness about persecution of the Christian faith while at the same time supplying Bible, training church leaders and providing aid to those believers suffering for their faith.
A 2-year study by Aid to the Church in Need, a Catholic persecution watchdog group, arrived at the same conclusion – the atrocities committed against Christians is by far at its worst:
“In terms of the numbers of people involved, the gravity of the crimes committed and their impact, it is clear that the persecution of Christians is today worse than at any time in history. Not only are Christians more persecuted than any other faith group, but ever-increasing numbers are experiencing the very worst forms of persecution. It is in this context that this report concludes that in 12 of the 13 countries reviewed, the situation for Christians was worse in overall terms in the period 2015–17 than within the preceding two years. An especially notable example of this was China where intolerance was on the rise, as evidenced by a renewed clampdown on dissident clergy and destruction of churches as well as crosses and other Christian symbols.” (source).
Saints Are Suffering in Many Nations
Worst Countries to live as a Christian | Why do Muslims hate Christians?
The World Watchlist map identifies the countries with the most extreme forms of Christian persecution.
“But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake.” – Luke 21:12.
According to Open Doors’ annual World Watch List, where they track and rank the “restricted nations”, countries where persecution takes place on a regular basis, there are 30 countries where believers experience high, very high or extreme persecution, here are some of the stories from the many who have suffered:

And to correct some who are misinformed at best:
No, you can’t merely deny your Christian faith to escape persecution.
You may escape the persecution, but you will also lose your Christianity as well.
Which is why they don’t bother with you after that, it is the Christians they are after,
because it is persecution of Christians.
Matthew 10; 32-33… if you deny Jesus, He denies you… no mincing words on that either.
We are called to be His witnesses, even unto death and in all circumstances!
Bob says
And not a word from Pope Frankie, let alone western politicos!
Carol says
It does seem a very harsh expectation. Most of our energies should be in trying to get these people out of these jackal-type environments. Then they could be over here in North America bearing passionate 3D witness to how increasingly violent, coercive and hateful Islam becomes when trying to bury solid competition.
It seems evident to me that the POWERFUL WITNESS they could bear must surely be why globalist politicians like pope frankie prefer to let them hang them instead.
gravenimage says
Carol, Uganda is only 10% Muslim.
Brit says
“We are called to be His witnesses, even unto death ….”
That is a very cruel ideal to burden anyone with.
Brave Madina has already proved her love of Christ by converting and openly worshiping. She has gone way above and beyond for her family and religion.
I’m just an atheist catholic, but from what I remember of the religion, didn’t Jesus sacrifice himself so that there would be no need for any more human sacrifice?
LeftisruiningCanada says
Of a certainty there is no need for any further sacrifice, Christ’s own being of sufficient value for the redemption of His elect.
He did however make it quite clear that the world would hate his followers in the same way that it had hated Him. It is also the case that, as His people are made more and more into His image, that some will be allowed to suffer martyrdom. From the perspective of eternity, this may actually be a special blessing.
Their sufferings and death do not pay for their sins however, that being the work of another.
J D S says
I feel sympathetic for what happened to this woman and the thousands of others who are being persecuted by those who are following Islam Jesus said those many centuries ago that his followers would be persecuted. We here in America haven’t faced the type of perception of the kind that those of the middle east and Africa have. Europe is seeing persecution birth pangs and it won’t be too inch longer before it reaches us here unless we use more control.
A lot of people don’t like President Trump but out of t of all the world leaders he has done more to protect our religious rights as well as our country from being invaded by those who hate us, one way by restricting entry into our great nation but at every turn those on the left are trying thwart his efforts. The far left courts are trying to block his efforts.
I won’t live long enough to see it but sure would like to be “a fly on the wall” when the far left is swallowed up by those they are helping. UNBELIEVABLE! but it actually is believable with what’s happening.
b.a. freeman says
unfortunately, J D S, although there will probably be quite a few brave leftists who refuse to convert, when the heads of most of those on the left are placed on the chopping block by pious muslims, they will cowardly say the shahada to save their own skins, thinking that “it’s only a religion.” they will continue to live, and may even continue to be “nice” (as in “decent by western standards”), but they will have the joy of seeing their own children grow up as pious muslims, completely rejecting *everything* in which they believe, and becoming murderous thugs. it will cost us civilization itself, but we will be able to say, if only from the grave, “i told U so, idiot!”
i, for one, have no intention of sitting idly by while the treasonous left betrays us and guts our freedom. in times past, when there was no internet, it was more difficult to rebut lies; one actually had to take time out of one’s day to make (possibly multiple) visits to public and/or university libraries to research what one had heard. most people had no more extra time in their lives in past decades than they do now, so those visits didn’t get made, and the lies remained unchallenged. now that we do have the internet, however, our data sources, although still polluted by bulls**t and lies, are greatly expanded, and lies can be challenged in greater depth and far sooner than in the past. when the liars persist in spreading their untruths, they only unmask themselves as unworthy of belief. this is a *great* advantage, and we need to take advantage of it.
my suggestion is to visit leftist websites and make comments, if they are not too cowardly to allow them. be sure to be polite and (relatively) unagressive; ad hominem and tu quoque attacks won’t convince anybody. i have found that pretending to be almost completely uninformed, but caring about my fellow man (not pretending about that), and asking questions about islam that lead to exposing its poisonous beliefs, is useful; quoting islamic scripture, if allowed to stay posted, may help the most, because when others researching the truth find the quotes, then verify them for themselves in an attempt to discredit your posts, it can open people’s eyes. finally, remember that most leftists are only *nominially* leftist, because they were taught leftist ideas, were not exposed to opposing ideas, and were not taught critical thinking (eric allen bell is a good example of a leftist whose eyes were opened on islam). such people are basically decent, and given the right information, are capable of waking up to the danger in which we all find ourselves.
Carol says
b.a. freeman…very wise advice. The Internet could easily be the downfall of this absurd and ugly political/social malignant religio-farce called Islam. A Pack of Pirates is the most profound conclusion possible by sentient, sensible beings. We shouldn’t neglect posting the occasional challenge or fact on Internet sites. But don’t let the trolls take up your time unnecessarily and tire you out with their irrational falsehoods – they usually seem to just want to “get their lies out there” or divert away as best they can from subject matter that helps “pin them to the wall”. We need to build our fortress (more people like Bridget Gabriel would be a real plus).

It is a serious crime against our own for not helping them or at least acknowledging that our Christian brothers and sisters are suffering in other countries. It is horrific! God Bless them and give them what they need to fight such evil people and persecutions! It will come to us in our country if we do not stop it over there! Watch when the One World Order takes over and America is no more as it was or a free nation anymore! When all the evil and corruption is running rampant, worse than it is now ….THEN we will see first hand what they have suffered for it will US who are persecuted for faith in God!

More evil fruits from the rotten tree of islam!
You will know a tree by its fruit…
Ruth says
INDEED! Islam and muslims are satans army an devil to the bone of existence…yet they spout they are so good and their islam is the only way….ha! Have they ever been brainwashed and indoctrinated! I only pray that we Christians will be on hand to witness what happens to them all when God…the REAL ONE– sends them to the lake of fire and Hell for good as they deserve. Yes, I know we are not any of us perfect but at least we try to live as the Bible says and believe in Jesus- the Savior, God- the Father and the Holy Spirit within us…..just what do the ignorant muslims think when they read the Bible and see they are so opposite to all that is good and right….are they really that dumb….sorry but they are. Anyone that would subject themselves to such rubbish has to be stone stupid….err rotten fruit from rotten trees.
elee says
…….between the evil and the stupidity lies the lethality.
Carol says
Idi Amin was muslim and addled with syphilis from his bordello days. Early in his Ugandan career he bemoaned the fact Islam had failed to make inroads as well as other religions and blamed this inexplicable failure on the constant sectarian infighting and ambitions.
Some think the death toll from leadership was likely around 300,000 but more recent studies by Amnesty put it as high as 500,000.
It looks like Saudi Arabia kept him holed up incommunicado for the last 24 years of his life near Jeddah. They thought he made muslims look bad!!!
gravenimage says
Yes. When I was at university I worked with a Ugandan Christian whose family had had to flee Idi Amin.
Green Infidel says
“Madina lost her husband two years ago, who died shortly after they left Islam for Christianity. ”
What a coincidence… Did he die from a similar cause?
Also, this suggests that she was not only targeted due to being a Christian, but due to being an apostate.
Westman says
I’m betting that Taaka Hajir’s husband or her Imam is the directing force behind the poisoning.
Stacy Girl says
Not so fast. Muslim women are the chief genital mutilaters in the family. This has always given me pause.
StellaSaidSo says
Indeed, and they are to be condemned for it. But it is Muslim men who call the shots.
Carol says
These are dependent women with broods to feed. Their oppressor becomes not only their meal ticket but their hero.

Uganda: Muslim poisons Christian mother with Christmas gifts, sending her vomiting
…………………..
Jut horrifying. And what if she had given the children this food? Likely they would have died.
That these were “Christmas gifts” is especially perverse.
I hope the family leaves this village. Clearly, they are not safe there, and it does not sound as though authorities are going to do anything to protect them.
And some here still believe that Uganda has banned Islam. Obviously, this is not so.
abad says
That’s all Moslems do is kill people on a daily basis because their Quran demands it.
Islam is the most violent religion to ever exist on earth. it really is.
LeftisruiningCanada says
It’s hard to express how disgusted i am by this story.
Is it ok to hate islam now lebel? Is it alright to say that these muslims that did this are wicked?
Ibrahim, do you like what your fellow death cult member did here? Did they deserve it? Was it the Christians fault? The West’s? Was it the white man that did this?
Or was it islam modeled on mohammad, that devil from the pit?
Infidel says
Worse even than savages… pure evil!!
mortimer says
Poisoning is the Sunna of Mohammed …Mohammed’s sacred EXAMPLE which his followers must imitate!
Six of Islam’s MOST IMPORTANT figures were murdered by poison! Political assassination by poisoning is normative Islam, rather than an aberration.
1) Mohammed was poisoned by his closest ‘friends’ Abu Bakr and Omar and their daughters Aisha and Hafsa, but it was blamed on the Jews…blame shifting is another Islamic tradition. 2) Abu Bakr was poisoned next, along with his chief adviser… by Omar. Then 3) Caliph Omar was killed with a poisoned spear. Next, 4) Uthman was killed with a poisoned sword. Mohammed’s grandson, caliph-candidate 5) Hasan ibn `Ali was poisoned by Caliph Muawiyah. Mohammed’s great-grandson, caliph-candidate 6) Alī ibn Ḥusayn bin Ali was poisoned by Caliph Hisham ibn Abd al-Malik. Thus, six of Islam’s MOST IMPORTANT figures were murdered by poison!
Political assassination by poisoning is thus normative Islam, rather than an aberration.
mortimer says
Nafamba Bongo Madina asked for forgiveness not because she is sorry, but because Sharia law gives the option of forgiving someone who may be condemned in court, thus stopping the trial and punishment.
This is more supremacism and DISCRIMINATORY Sharia law.
Uganda is the country where Muslim Idi Amin murdered and then ATE THE FLESH of his victims.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Yes. Caught after her plan failed, then plays victim and begs forgiveness. Depraved.
Budvarakbar says
Re-read the article and please try to get the names straightened out!
Carol says
Love the poisoning info (any referrals to interesting sources Mortimer?). How can anyone be surprised by this piece of history! That Allah sure has a “mean” sense of humour despite what they say! His very own Islam is the very brunt – and yet muslims still refuse to wise up! Asstounding!
And if Madina (the victim) KNOWS WHAT’S GOOD FOR HER OR HER CHILDREN she will swiftly forgive Taaka Hajira. But you have to ask why Madina would not “look a gift horse in the mouth”.
Raymond Ibrahim has documented scores and scores of such events in the muslim world for decades now. This Ugandan incident is relatively benign – seems the country is a mixed bag at the very least.
gravenimage says
I think at the last minute she *did* wonder about this “gift” from her Muslim neighbors–that is why she tried it herself before serving it to her children.
Karen says
So, Ms. Hajira gets annoyed by hearing some hymn-singing (supposedly), 300 ft away from her house, and decides to murder her widowed-neighbor, and leave 5 children as orphans. Good Lord. What does she do if someone cuts her off in traffic?
This crime took a lot of planning, and nerve to follow it through. Imagine her smiling, grinning face as she appeared with the poisonous “gifts” on Christmas morning, intending to kill – whoever. As Gravenimage points out, she came very close to killing 5 children. Mind boggling. I think it was a mistake to drop charges, but perhaps the Christians feel out numbered in that village and had no choice. Too bad…
Matt Dillon says
Islam is a club of inbred cousin lovers. It cannot be allowed 2 exist in nondeviant societies. If u are exposed to this evil you must make its ability 2 breath difficult. It is your duty as a human being. Share this site with everyone u know. God bless Americans.
ronyvo says
As I keep saying NEVER EVER trust Muslims. The hate which was implanted in their hearts from day one is so extreme.
Also, as I was saying, I am real surprised that those Muslim invaders (criminals) did not poison our water supply or food. I do not buy any food from Muslim store, let alone restaurants which employ Muslims.
Actually, I did not buy a car from a well known dealer because the salesman assigned to me was Muslim. I lived with them for over 25 years, I KNOW BETTER.
MFritz says
A toxic ideology indeed.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Yes, a fitting metaphor – a Christian choking on the poisonous ‘gift’ of islam.
Walter Sieruk says
Just for the sake of interest and information a Christian man, whose name of ,William Wagner , composed a book which is entitled HOW ISLAM PLANS TO CHANGE THE WORLD and on page 155 he informs the reader that “Several years ago one Imam told me that prior to 1990 , the greatest enemy to Islam was Communism bur now it is Christian missions.” Further on page 208 when writing about Muslim he wrote “They have failed to stop Christian missions .They see Christian missions as their number one enemy.” On the very next , page this author reveals that “Christianity remains the number one buffer against Islam ,a fact recognized by those who seek a worldwide ummah.” *

Never doubted it for a moment. A sense of common values means a lot but there’s so much competition for our time these days. Any solutions?
